Når Mogens koger grød, er der altid en ekstra portion. For Mogens og hans slægt har altid levet med både himlen og jorden, Gud og de underjordiske. Det er vigtigt at holde sig på god fod med begge parter. Men familien er også vigtig - og højest elsker Mogens sin afdøde hustru, Ingrid, og sit oldebarn, Mette. De to spænder hans liv og håb, hans tro og tvivl, ud. Og historien om Mogens er derfor også historien om de to, der har fulgt ham alle steder - undtagen ét: Til Brøndtjætten, den heks, der ventede Mogens, da han som dreng faldt i brønden

When Ashlyn discovers a pair of beautifully bound volumes that appear to have never been published, her gift quickly becomes an obsession. Not only is each inscribed with a startling incrimination, but the authors, Hemi and Belle, tell conflicting sides of a tragic romance.

Grace has always wanted to be a ballerina, ever since she first peered through the windows of the Near North Ballet company. The elegance of the dance seemed transcendent to an immigrant child of the working poor, and so, when she is orphaned, it is to the ballet that she flees. Years later, Grace is on the verge of becoming the company's new prima ballerina - though she is beginning to realise that achieving her long-held dream may not be the triumph she once envisioned.

Story
Da sempre, nelle giuste condizioni, i bambini scompaiono: vengono risucchiati dalle ombre sotto il letto, scivolano dietro gli armadi, cadono nelle tane di coniglio o in fondo a vecchi pozzi. E poi rispuntano… da qualche altra parte. Peccato che, spesso, i Regni Fatati non sappiano che farsene di nuovi bambini magici. Anche Nancy era scomparsa, ma ora è tornata. Quello che ha vissuto, però... be', da lì non c'è modo di tornare. I bambini affidati alle cure di Eleanor West lo sanno fin troppo bene: ciascuno di loro sta cercando una strada per tornare al proprio mondo fantastico.

Story
Gabriel García Márquez's great masterpiece is the story of seven generations of the Buendía family and of Macondo, the town they built. Though little more than a settlement surrounded by mountains, Macondo has its wars and disasters, even its wonders and its miracles. A microcosm of Columbian life, its secrets lie hidden, encoded in a book, and only Aureliano Buendía can fathom its mysteries and reveal its shrouded destiny.

Story
By a riverbank in Africa, two lovers meet for the first time. They make a promise to meet again the next day, same time, same place, but only one of them shows up. This sounds like the beginning of a love story, but it's more than that, for this breath-taking tale takes the listener into the heart of a vibrant world, a complex and intriguing civilization of warriors and kings, philosophers and artists, parents and lovers. A world and culture which is about to end, for glimpsed on the horizon, seen but unsuspected, beautiful ships with white sails are waiting.

Story
El realismo mágico que surge desde las páginas de la novela "Casa Ananda" entreteje a cada persona con hilos infinitos de cada vivencia que allí se respira. La imaginación del lector navega en un fascinante escenario donde se entrelazan el amor, la espiritualidad, el misticismo, la vida, el miedo, la muerte, los tabúes con las vivencias reales de cada historia. El camino de Santiago llena de energía a la posada Casa Ananda y enseña que el vínculo de sus senderos es la vida misma. La sincronía de Casa Ananda y el camino de Santiago te invita a sentir cada paso narrado allí.
